Metronomy - Reservoir

Do you ever have songs that make you smile just to hear them? Songs where you can’t shake a piece of the melody for days on end, or songs that you like so much that even though you know the song perfectly from start to finish it always gets all jumbled up when you listen to it in your head just because there are so many little moments you simply cannot wait to hear that you have to keep leaping from halfway through a verse to the middle eight and back down to the intro?

I wouldn’t want to be without them.

And Reservoir is so simple, yet so perfect. Why spend your time or money on elaboration when you can construct pop out of a simple keyboard melody and a not terribly intricate drum programme?
